Some details I have been posting regular updates on this over on the 2nd gen boards... NASTYZ28.com http://www.nastyz28.com/threads/1973...g-nums.255144/

I set up a zinc plating tank and started plating a bunch of stuff for the car.
Just been collecting parts and making progress.

Replated the TCS relay and the Horn Relay, tons of nuts and bolts and restored, cleaned terminal ends, washed the plugs, replaced wires, rewrapped the wiring harnesses.
honed and rebuilt the original brake calipers.

Inside fresh air ducting, harness gutters, antenna lead, dash mat (firewall pad), brake line clip refinishing (pantone color match number), details details details are what makes them assembly line correct.

Awesome car James! I wonder what the different color "G" markings on the rear end mean? Yours is orange and mine is blue, our cars are a month apart yours being older.
